Tin Foil Hat by Definition
Tin Foil Hat, also tinfoil hat, a general term for a piece of headgear made from one or more sheets of tin foil, aluminium foil, or other similar material. Some people wear the hats in the belief that they act to shield the brain from such influences as electromagnetic fields, or against mind control and/or mind reading. The concept has become a popular stereotype and term of derision; in Internet culture, the phrase serves as a byword for paranoia.
The Urban Dictionary
Time for all you Russian Bots out there to roll out the aluminum, spread your demented propaganda and influence the weak jello-like minds of the Steemit masses.
The first installment of TFR was more than 3 months ago and was a rousing success.
Many of you lived up to your reputations as seriously deranged fucks.
And I loved every minute of it.
The Tin Foil Crown went to an up and coming minnow known on the Block as @jamesgetsit with an audio entry that can only be described as a verbal Tin Foil Rap barrage!
Powers That Be
Since winning the Tin Foil Crown , @jamesgetsit has been lighting up the Blockchain with his deadly verses and has gone on to create his own contest Kill The Pad. For any true Hip-Hop heads out there, you gotsta be following this talented rhyme sayer. His lyrics are straight Sriracha!
I've recruited this brain-sick-super-human to join me in judging this very special edition of TFR and passing down the alluminati crown to some new sicko out there.
Syrian Edition
Context
Last year, I made a series of posts dedicated to the intense propaganda being aimed at the minds of western audiences in regards to events taking place in Syria.
Propaganda and Syria: Sculpting Western Minds
USAID Funds White Helmets aka Al Qaeda with a Facelift
See more here - Syrian Propaganda and the White Helmets
Recent events in Syria have brought us to the brink of WW3 with the alleged use of chemical weapons by the Syrian government in what appears to be yet another false flag operation meant to trigger US intervention.
A haze of propaganda is thick in the air.
False flags, Chemical weapons, the White Helmets, Rebels, Foreign Terrorists, ISIS, Omran Daqneesh, the Deep State, Trump, Assad, CIA, MI5, James Le Mesurier, Free Syrian Army, Al Qaeda, USAID, Chemonics, Syrian Civil Defense, Al Nustra, MayDay Rescue, NATO, Oil Pipelines, Weapons Smuggling, Rat Lines, No-fly Zones, Silkway Airlines, John McCain, Putin, Gaddafi, Golan Heights, war profiteering, WMDs in Iraq, Libya, Israel, The Saudis, Iran, "7 countries in 5 years", Saudis and Qatar bankrolling ISIS, Russia-Russia-Russia, Iran, US-Saudi 100 billion arms deal,...

Another one? This is the 2nd one that I've flagged for copy and pasting my entire post. Thanks for bringing this one to my attention ;)

I spent 4 hours writing material to join in today, then deleting it and starting again, and gave up, and after looking at your entry anyway, as mc hammer sang, "can't touch this" so I am glad I gave up, tips hat to you, and bows out.
You spent weeks talking me into writing again, you gave me a million reasons why I should, you helped me with markdown, you spent hours coaching me on discord, you told me who to follow, what style to write, helped me and encouraged me, and you give up yourself that easily? now you sir, have confused me, why put so much time into me, and so little into you?.
here is my entry...I had fun with this one :-P

Oh man u know I'm in, the last one was alot of fun to participate in and read others submissions. "Alluminati" lol
This one is going to be brutal; the subject matter doesn't allow much in the way of flowers and pretty things.
Us folks over at @thewritersblock are already chewing on some of the nasty bits here, and hopefully we can disgorge something that will be entertaining, enlightening, and Allumaniacal!
Thanks for another legit contest!
Thanks, glad to see there's some interest despite the lack of flowers, puppies, unicorns and rainbows ;)
Excellent initiative with the contest, you have to be very creative to write a poem or a lyric about Syrian propaganda, but I'm sure there will be many participants in the challenge.
in Steemit what's so much talent Steemians
Cool, it will should be interesting to see how people are interpreting all this propaganda. This will be another amazing contest for sure. Best of luck to everyone and big thanks to @v4vapid for putting this together. I've been excited for the 2nd TFR ever since the 1st TFR ended.
lol holy shit!!! I am SO in!! This is an awesome idea.
Sweet, glad you dig it man! Fighting propaganda with facts can be an up hill battle...but art can cut right through the layered lies ;)
yeah this seems like it will be a good challange, plus I have been known to bust out a freestyle at parties from time to time lol
